AI Overview

Overview of DOT Physical Examinations

A Department of Transportation (DOT) physical examination is a health assessment mandated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) for commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers. This examination ensures that each driver is capable and healthy enough to safely perform the demanding duties associated with operating a commercial vehicle. The primary goal is to enhance road safety by preventing accidents caused by physical health issues.

Who Needs a DOT Physical?

  • Commercial Drivers: All commercial drivers who operate vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating over 10,000 pounds must undergo this physical examination.
  • Interstate Bus Drivers: Drivers who operate vehicles that carry more than 15 passengers, including the driver, interstate.
  • Hazardous Material Transporters: Those who transport hazardous materials that require safety permits due to the quantity.

Components of a DOT Physical

The DOT physical covers various health checks to assess a driver’s physical and mental capabilities:

  1. Vision Test: Drivers must have at least 20/40 acuity in each eye with or without correction and a horizontal visual field of at least 70 degrees in the horizontal meridian in each eye.
  2. Hearing Test: Drivers must be able to hear a forced whisper from a distance of at least five feet with or without a hearing aid.
  3. Blood Pressure/Pulse Rate: Assesses cardiovascular health and the potential for hypertension.
  4. Urinalysis: Screens for underlying medical conditions like diabetes and kidney disorders.
  5. Physical Examination: Involves the examination of multiple systems in the body including neurological, musculoskeletal, respiratory, and psychiatric systems to ensure no impairment that could hinder driving ability.

Validity and Certification

Once a driver passes the DOT physical, they receive a DOT medical certificate which is typically valid for up to two years. However, if a condition is found that requires monitoring (such as hypertension), the medical certificate may be issued for a shorter period.

Preparing for a DOT Physical

Drivers should prepare for their DOT physical by:

  • Gathering Health Information: Bring a list of current medications and information on any diagnosed conditions.
  • Wearing Proper Attire: Wear loose clothing for the physical exam, and bring any necessary corrective lenses or hearing aids.
  • Staying Informed: Be aware of how certain medical conditions might affect the ability to pass the physical.

A DOT physical is a crucial step for the safety of both the commercial driver and other road users. By ensuring medical fitness, these exams help maintain high safety standards in the transportation industry.

Local Area Info: Central City, Pennsylvania

Central City is a borough in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, United States. The population was 1,258 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Metropolitan Statistical Area. It is east-northeast of Stoystown and northeast of Somerset.

Central City is situated on lands originally owned by Shade Township's first settlers, Casper Stotler and George Lambert. It was founded in 1894 by Anthony Wechtenhiser and received its name from its central location along the projected Midland Railroad. The objective was to build a railroad into the large coal field known to exist in this region. The projected railroad, under a preliminary survey made in 1894, would have extended the road southeast along Dark Shade Creek and Shingle Run valleys, across the mountain by way of Frazier's Gap, into Bedford County and eastward to the Atlantic seaboard. However, the project failed to develop. In 1913 an extension to the town was laid out by the Cook and Neasley Realty Company on lands then owned by John Wechtenhiser and Obadiah Lohr. The town was incorporated into the borough of Central City in 1918.

Initially, there were big plans for the town of Central City. In 1921, Central City became a charter bank to the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland. It ceased printing currency in 1935. This bank, located on Main Street, printed over a half a million dollars worth of national currency during its existence. The inhabitants of Central City borough and the surrounding area are served by nine churches, sixteen stores, one hotel, five garages and service stations, three barber shops, a printing house, a photo studio, two funeral homes, a greenhouse, two veterans' organizations-American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars, and one financial institution—Central City Bank, a branch of AmeriServ Financial Bank of Johnstown.
